“For crab enthusiasts, this spot offers the convenience of on-site cooking facilities after a day on the nearby public docks. While basic, the rooms provide essential amenities like mini-fridges and microwaves, adding value for budget-conscious travelers. I think it's a practical choice if crabbing and local seafood are high on your Charleston agenda.”
